Graze the Day
A NEW signature event in Timboon is set to showcase the region’s finest producers, creators and musical talent, as well as celebrating First Nations culture.
Graze the Day will be held on Kirrae Whurrong Country at the Timboon natural amphitheatre on Saturday, November 23, from 11am to 5pm.
Mayor Kate Makin said the event will have something on offer for everyone.
“Mark this event on your calendar – Graze the Day will be an event to look forward to,” she said.
“There will be a fun blend of music, activities, artisan produce and local makers, with cultural performances organised by Eastern Maar Aboriginal Corporation.”
Council will lead and deliver the new event, with the support of local producers, community and businesses.
Council manager economy and prosperity Katy McMahon said council is calling for submissions from artists and designers who are Eastern Maar citizens, to help develop the brand.
“Our aim is to create an iconic event that is unique to Corangamite and draws both locals and visitors,” she said.
“We are running an Expression of Interest for an Eastern Maar artist to develop the event branding that expresses the connection between people and Country.”
